First memorialized in writing in 1876 by Jerry Thomas, "the father of American mixology", this "gin and sparkling lemonade" drink is typically served in a Collins glass over ice. A non-alcoholic "Collins mix" mixer is produced, enjoyed by some as a soft drink. </span></p><p class="ql-block"><br></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size: 20px;">It is the name of a cocktail, not a person. And it developed into a humorous hoax.</span></p> <p class="ql-block"><br></p><p class="ql-block">汤姆 考林斯,只是一个幽默名字,没有其人。 源于鸡尾酒名。 由于误解和玩笑,后人 编了很多可笑的饮酒诗, 成为酒巴文化的一部分。在欧洲一度风行, 传至美国。 </p> <p class="ql-block"><br></p><p class="ql-block">当时售酒市场。</p> <p class="ql-block">译文/原创 吕丁倩</p><p class="ql-block">图像/网络</p><p class="ql-block">版权自持, 转发请署明译者</p><p class="ql-block">出版须获得译者同意</p>
